    Thanks. I think I'm finally all set lol. Only problem is - almost every website seems to be out of stock on cb babies! Where are some good places to get retfs?

    I bought my first 2 from a local pet store. They had to order them in. The next 2 I bought from LLL Reptile they were 1 month out of water. I don't see any on their site right now. There was a user on the forums who has a whole mess of baby Reds. He might be up for selling a few of them.

    I can't stress enough how important it is to do a 30 day quarantine period for new frogs. It allows them time to adjust and allows you time to observe them and make sure they are doing good (Not sick, eating good, pooping, and all the normal things).

    I don't know of any CB babies that are available. Pickings will be slim until winter is over I am afraid. I'll keep my eyes open and will post a link if I find any.

    Here is one. I don't have any experience buying from them, but I have seen their name tossed around a bunch.

    I've seen really bad reviews about backwater reptiles.. So I've been trying to find other places. I'll try and find the user selling them.

    Your daytime and night time humidity levels are fine with those heat bulbs. Don't worry too much about high humidity with these guys that's where people end up having problems with them. Too much can be more harm than good. They always visit the water dish at night to rehydrate anyway so don't worry about them drying out during the day. I had a sick red eye once that was being treated with baytril and was in a dry tank. The baytril dries the **** out of their skin it literally looked old and wrinkley but after it soaked in its dish at night it was completely reversed. Just check that no frogs are sleeping up at the top of the tank directly under the bulbs as 40 W could possibly burn them if they're are exposed to it all day, easy thing to do is just bring the light canopy forward away from the area where they are sleeping.
